Vaas met schubben en lobben 1657

"Vaas met schubben en lobben" (Vase with scales and lobes) is an etching created in 1657 by French artist Françoise Bouzonnet, known for her depictions of classical antiquities. The detailed engraving showcases a meticulously rendered Roman-style vase, ornamented with a pattern of scales, a leafy band, and fluted sections. Bouzonnet's precise linework and skillful use of shading create a sense of depth and texture, highlighting the decorative elements of the vase. The artwork is a fine example of the revival of interest in classical art during the 17th century, a trend which Bouzonnet expertly captured through her engravings.
